We inherited this tank from my MIL. We just got the rock in it on Sunday Nov. 30th. I guess we're doing OK with it. I had a freshwater 20 gallon growing up with Gourami's so doing saltwater is completely different. We don't have a heater yet and the temp. stays around 68 or so.

I've read, thanks. :) There's only rock, water, sand, a therm, and a cleaning magnet in there oh and some pH thing that the fish store gave to us free. All has been in there except the rock. We just added that a few days ago. The things on the rock were there when we got it. If we're ahead then OK, just tryin' to do it right.

pismo...... what a tool.

 

looks good, just wait a few weeks b4 doing anything else. just top off with ro/di water(not salt water), no water changes, and keep light cycle minimum to keep algae growth down while tank establishes itself in next few weeks.

 

p.s. get a heater, water temp needs to be around a constant 78

Indo-pacific black sand for the win! yea do the above mentioned things, 78 degrees, <7 hour light pd, r/o water topoff. Oh, and make sure to tap all the bubbles off the wand of that cheapo hydrometer i see off to the left or you might get an incorrect salinity reading.

As most have said, 78 degrees is good for your live rock. Also it's a choice of personal preference, but most people keep the rocks away from the sides of the tank for easier cleaning of the glass when algae starts to become a problem. I started my tank only about 2 weeks ago ... but I have learned so much already from reading up on the forums here and asking questions! Good luck! =)
